Can XB12X Luggage Top Case and Side Case Kit fit XB12S? Does anyone know if the the hardware and the trunk kit for the Ulysses can be mounted on a 2004 XB12S? If someone has as photo of this that would be great

Can't say for sure but I would guess not.

The rack is designed to bolt up to the X's tail section.

I would imagine the length would be wrong and holes would not line up etc..

There is a thread lost somewhere in the archives about a company that sells racks and side cases for an XBS. There might be a top case as well but not really sure.
I've seen pics of the S side bags mounted.

There's not a whole lot of passenger leg room (if any) but it looked really nice.

Edit: I can't remember the make of the side cases. Only that the model name was Junior.

You could probably make it work but there would be no room for you.

The Buell cases are Hepco and Becker. If you get Hepco and Becker mounts you can use the Uly cases, or any other H&B cases. I don't know about the top case though. You lose the passenger pegs on the S with the H&B mounts. I looked into it but $$$$

I would rather have just the trunk bag. I wonder if one of the Givi trunks could be mounted to the "S"???

Look into getting a Ventura rack and bag from American Sport Bike

The top case no not really, I looked long and hard and it was going to be a lot of work. The cases will hit with a Hepco & Becker bracket BUT the Buell bags log on the bike with the latch to the front and the H/Bs do so from the rear.

You do lose the rear pegs, mounts and all to mount them.

Eurotech is the importer BUT they are wholesale only so you'll need to find a dealer.
